If it’s nice in Seattle, I’d check out Pike Place, then walk down to the West Seattle Water Taxi and take it across (~10 min) to eat at Marination Ma Kai. The food is great and it’s a nice, cheap way to get on the water.

Idk what your budget is, but doing a seaplane flight with Kenmore air is incredible. Alternatively, rent a kayak from Moss Bay on SLU and you can kayak up to the houseboats (so very sleepless in seattle!) and see the seaplanes up close taking off / landing.

One of the best views of Seattle is from Kerry Park. If you’re craving a PNW hike, then Discovery Park or the Arboretum are in the city but are awesome
